There are events that, when looked upon through the scope of history, seem miraculous and yet somehow inevitable.
The special election this past Tuesday seems to be one of those cases. Now, don't get me wrong - I fully realize that this is politics and that Scott Brown is just another cog in a very crooked wheel but the Tea Party parallels are just so...sublime that if I was a more religious person I'd be tempted to credit divine intervention.
Imagine...an assumed underdog is propelled to victory over an entrenched superpower by a grassroots movement enraged at being overtaxed by a government that isn't listening.
In Massachusetts.
Again.

It was on the news Scot Brown is Obama's
10th cousin. How is that going to work ?
